Our workshops and programmes are built on direct knowledge from Europe’s textile-to-textile recyclers. We turn the complex realities of industrial recycling into practical, actionable tools for designers, product teams and buyers.
Who we train.
Making circular design everyone's business
Embedding circular design requires coordinated decision making across multiple internal stakeholders. That's why our training is designed for designers and product development teams, buyers and merchandisers, sustainability and compliance leads, and marketing teams alike.
We work with brands at every scale, from global retailers embedding circular design across thousands of SKUs, to independent labels certifying their first circular range. We also work with suppliers and university design programmes, extending our reach across the wider value chain.
What we cover.
Training that embeds circular design decision making into the everyday
Our training doesn't just improve knowledge, it changes how garments are designed, producing clothing that can genuinely be recycled at end-of-life.
Sessions cover Circular Systems, Legislation, Recycling Technologies, Recycled Content, Design for Recyclability and Third Party Assurance, and can be delivered in-house or in multi-brand environments, as the two videos below illustrate:
How we deliver.
The right training for wherever you are

University & Academic Partnerships

Nicholas Lambert, Head of Circularity, Primark
This is the next step for us at Primark to really start embedding circular design principles into the core of how we design and make our products. Our teams are really looking forward to honing their skills and understanding where we can elevate our designs through this bespoke new training. We want to keep pushing our in-house designers and suppliers to create fun and innovative ways to elevate our clothes beyond what our customers may traditionally expect from us.
